Other than the city and certain parts in SE and NW, Roanoke is absolutely beautiful! Moved here from San Diego and we love it

I'm happy to hear that you love it there. My husband and I want to move there next year. But I recently became concerned about crime after hearing some things

“With a crime rate of 44 per one thousand residents, Roanoke has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 23.” You ARE WRONG...Roanoke is not a safe place to live!

I have lived here my whole life and have never been a victim of crime. I've been downtown, I've been Southeast, Northwest have never had a problem. I also don't go out and hit the bars and all that stuff late at night either and that's when the majority of the crime is happening.

When researching this topic there seem to be two sides to the story. The statistics say one thing, and the people there say another.

Hey. I'm an engineer and I've got a job offer from a company based in Roanoke. We are in Melbourne Australia which is a very safe place. The high crime rate in Roanoke is just off-putting. It might not as bad as people say, but I can't make my mind about making the move. Are there safe suburbs where affluent prople live?

Any city in the united states has bad parts, stay away from those areas and Roanoke is absolutely beautiful
